Identifies Towns by Sense of Smell

Despatch Rider For Allies, Although Man of Means, Delights in Identifying Place by Peculiar Odors.

BY PERCEVAL LANDON, Special Correspondent of the International News Service. ' ON THE FRENCH , FRONT, Sept. 27. Creyke is a curious man, and it is perhaps as well for him that he has plenty of money. At this moment he is a N. C. O. of the dispatch-riders. But his real metier in life is the study of automatic perceptions, unconscious human associations and undeveloped senses; and one day he will produce a new art and then he will die, and his relations will dispute his will. But that there is something in at least one of his obcessions is shown by a remark which he made to me as I was driving him back from Boulogne. We were running well through La Chapelle. I had said something to him about the occasion of his getting his Military Cross, and had asked him how, at the outset of his enterprise, he had found out, on a cross-country road, without lights and in pitch darkness, that he had lost his way. , "I was given, wrong directions, but I knew where my man was, and I soon smelt that I was off the track. I should have been in Belgium, and it was clear that I was still in France." Smells the Dust. I demurred to this as impossible. A French staff car was approaching, driven by Jehu, as usual. Creyko waited till we were in the thick of the blinding white dust, and then said, "Surely you can smell the difference between one dust and another?" "Now that he said it, I wondered whether I could at least why I had never thought of the thing before. I shook my head. "Well," he went on; "we'll call in another of the neglected senses to make you see. Go slow; let her take herself down into the woods." The car dropped easily across the railway tracks, and sank into the cool green of the Forest de Boulogne. . "Now lick your lips." y . I did so, and instinctively put the back of my hand to them, and glanced at it as I drew it away. - Tells by Chalk Taste. No." he went on, 'your mouth's no bleeding: but isn't It simple?

wjfjrfj,

Blind

Selves in Bomb Raids of founder of Academy of Music Dark as it was that night, I knew that the smell of tue dust 'was too salt, and that therefore I was still on French chalk. In Belgium it's mostly clay, and therefore has a mawkish smell. So I halted, struck back, and just had time to get what they wanted done." Here was something new, even in this strange world of war, where every convention and most rules were daily going by the board. "Do you mean to say that you could tell your way about by your nose?" I asked incredulously. "No," he said "but it's much easier than you think to make a fair guess at your position in that way. Every place out here has its own smell, if one takes the trouble to note it." Creyke interested me, and I challenged him to a test. Some distance before we reached Setques, from which you may get to many different places, he folded a handkerchief under his huge motor goggles, and I took him far afield. We had the day before us and a universal pass. He was not invariably right as, indeed, he had warned me but he certainly justified his theory so far as it could be tested in that way, and in the hope of making one understand a little better than before the kind of land in which our men are living and working, these fragments may be useful. I turned south, and we ran for a mile or , two talking of other things, when a smell that even I could not mistake, made me ask him where be was. '"Of course,; I don't know. They plant' beans everywhere, and when the flower is out what other scent can live with it? I only know that one is nowhere near the trenches, and that we are, still in France neither a very startling piece of newsJ" - N Identifies Towns. Every now and then he interposed a comment in the middle of our talk. "So we are at Jexrolles; I -remember there was a hay field that was ready to be cut last 'Thursday and an Indian camp down the road. Here's the village itself. : One couldn't mistake a village in France for a town or even the outskirts of a town. It is fresh, and there is an unmistakable air of mixed street sewage and brown cooking Covered stables, too, and aa

Another great storm similar to that which recently killed scores and caused Immense damage on the Texas coast is sweeping northward over the Gulf of Mexico.

It is moving northward toward the mouth of the Mississippi. Its influence will be felt late tonight and Wednesday." . AMERICANS STAY ,. IN DANGER ZONE WASHINGTON, Sept. 28.

Wissler, chairman of the county committee. At the last meeting of the county committee it was decided to turn the work over to the Richmond committee in planning the county celebration. Recommendations will also be made by the special committee of the Commercial club, of which Superintendent Giles of the Richmond public schools, is chairman. METHODIST MEN PLAN FOB OUTING About 30 men, representing the Big Brothers' Sunday school class of the Grace M.

The class was formerly the brotherhood of the church but was merged with the business men's class recently and a new organization perfected with George F. Hamilton as president. The corn-bake will be a stag social affair. A Connecticut inventor has patented a cup shaped cover for an incandescent lamp to temporarily lessen the glare of an- automobile headlight. , ' . . ,

Grim Narrative of How Texas Rangers Hunt Down and Shoot Marauding Mexican Bands Along the Rio Grands River. . : 3

BY JOHN W. ROBERTS. BROWNSVILLE. Texas, Sept. 28. It' takes more qualifications to be a Texas Ranger than to be a soldier In the United States army. . For one thing you must be able to shoot ninety per cent average very tew soldiers can do that. And then, you have to be more than five feet, ten Inches talL Tou must know how to ride like a cowpuncher. and be skillful in handl ing the lariat. You must be a man of unqualified nerve, and be ready at all times to face danger without, a flinch. it was my good fortune to be one ot party .of ten ' rangers who left Brownsville early one evening In pursuit of some Mexican bandits who had recently raided an American ranch in the vicinity. Nothing ' ever excites these men. and as they tightened their cartridge belts, one would Imagine they were going out more on a pleas ure trip than a man hunt. I rode beside a tall, quiet, hand some boy of about 22 years of age. His race was as tanned as a Mexican's but his steel blue eyes betrayed his Anglo-Saxon nationality. Although, as I said before, he was but a boy, deep furrows not wrinkles marked his handsome features. They were the deep. - weather-marks which accompany the square jaws of a man ot great force. His tell Texas somberero sat jauntily on a shock of yellow hair. Are you married?" I asked him. when we were well on our way. No, sir, he drawled, "we rangers never marry. It is one of the rules." Whoever made that rule certainly beat a lot of. pretty Texas girls out of fine husbands. We rode along the country road in silence. No one had much to say. They are quiet fellowsthese rangers. They are very unobtrusive In times of peace, and very, much in evidence when there ia trouble going on. W e had now entered that part of the country which is covered with a network of mesquite brush, ten feet in heigth, as thick as any African Jungle ever could be. It seemed a silent com mand for the men to hold themselves in readiness as we trotted along. I started to whistle an old familiar tune. "Shut up," said my partner quietly. We came to a small clearing and halted. The waters of the Rio Grande were dotted with the reflection of the stars in the bright sky. Across the river was Mexico, and her vast, silent prairies gleamed like silver In the starlight. One of the Rangers dismounted and examined the ground closely. In a moment he was up again and in the saddle. They have gone that way," he point ed northward. How does he know that its the men we are after?" I asked of my compan ion. "By the foot prints." he replied. Greasers never take-the trouble to shoe their horses. An American's horse is always shod that is the difference, and the hoof prints point northward." Here were left the road and took up a trail through the chaparral, single file. The thud, thud of our horses hoofs in the soft earth, and the oc casional squek of a saddle were the only sounds which broke the stillness of the night. Away towards Browns ville, the scream of an automobile horn was heard; across the Rio Grande the high falsetto voice of a Mexican Sentinel, and the clear notes

Geraldine Farrar Reported Engaged

Low

In the theatrical district current rumors, report the engagement of Lou Tellegen, the noted Greek-Dutch-French dramatic star and Geraldine Farrar, famous Opera singer.. Mr. Tellegen, who came to this country three years ago as the leading man for Sarah Bernhardt and has since been starring in English playsi met Miss Farrar in California this summer where both were working in moving picture studios. . . : Mr. Tellegen is one of the youngest stars' on the stage, having recently passed his thirtieth birthday. If the report of his engagement is true it will be the second time he has ventured in matrimony. He was married at the age of nineteen but shortly thereafter was divorced. He was born in Holland, the son of a Greek armv officer and a Dutch dansuese. His real name is Telesrathos.

His early education was received in Holland and Germany, but he later went to the famous Paris Conservatoire, where he received the highest awards in acting and was selected by Mme. Bernhardt na Viot- Ion H in or man. ' i :

Man

1 ' of an American Trumpeter's bugle at Fort Brown were the only other sounds that penetrated the silence. - Suddenly,- without . warning. crash ot a body dashing through the mesquite to our left was heard.;. In almost the same instant, ten saddles were emptied; and ten big. strapping Texans bad dashed Into the brush like so many rabbits. The bones, but. for turning curious eyes, toward the brush In which their masters had disappear ed. remained absolutely still. : ... . A minute later, however, the ten. men returned and remounted. '. ."Coyote," explained my partner with a" smile." Toe damn' critters are. s ways fooling us. because they sound just, like a greaser trying, to. get away. . ' ; . We bad ridden but a mile further along this trail, when the shrill whinny of a pony broke through the stillness. It halted our small band like magic. Although no one said a word, each man knew what the other thought, and they acted together. Each ranger dismounted and took his rifle from the scabbard. "It's them, I guess." my partner In formed me. "Tou had better stay with the horses and keep your head under cover In case there Is any shooting. We will he back In a little while." . . Although every one of the ten rang ers who took Into the brush were big fellow's, each wearing heavy boots, yet, when they had gone but ten - paces from where I stood, I could not hear a sound not even the breaking ot a dry twig. Panthers looking for game In an African jungle could not have moved more silently, and although I knew that the men were not more than 100 feet away, the only sound that broke the stillness was the: lapping waters In the Rio Grande to my left. ' Another or the Things which amazed me was . the apparent j understanding of the horses as to what was happening. Not one of the leven animals moved or even brushed his - head against a mesquite brush. Five minutes later, the sound of shot cracked through the air. I was in' a state of feverish excitement. Never before had I been in a manhunt, and this one. staged in 'a still night of the prairies, bordering the waters of the Rio Grande made me doubt, even tben, that it was taking place on American soil. The shot was followed by another one, then a third, then many, all at once, and in a few seconds more the air rang with the cracks of rifles. I heard an oath screamed in Spanish; a sharp voiced command to halt, in English. I heard the phink of a body jumping Into the Rio Grande, then another one and another one. Someone was crashing madly through the mesquite brush to ray right, then ail was silence again. A-few annates latere the ten imagers returned unhurt. While I was trembling in my excitement, the men quietly put their guns back Into their scabbards; mounted" their horses, turned around, and started. back to Brownsville again. Not a word was spoken and each man's face was as immobile as though nothing had happened. "Did did did you get any. of them?" I whispered to my partner. - "Five." he said quietly, without looking up. Ten minutes passed before I nerved myself to ask the second question. "What did you do with them?"- The question seemed to amuse him. "Greasers are like dogs." he answered. "Let them rot where they die." girl, but has appeared in all the favorite and best known role is . ...... 1
